U also can download clips via http://keepvid.com/ as mp4.Another free video converter is http://www.virtualdub.org/ (also included in the http://www.lupopensuite.com/index.htm like GIMP and many more).I don't knoe, if any of these can convert to animated GIF. GIMP can make such GIFs, u need to import each single image as layer in GIMP, depending on the number of frames u need, it would be a very endless work...Edith says: U can drag and drop the single images alltogether into the layer-window of GIMP, i just tried it (u can use SUPER for example to convert a video into a stack of single images). If there existed no easier to use converter, this should be a possible way.
